Re: how to use an Electribe live?

I sequence my EMX-1 from Ableton, making this the correct forum, and love it. One of the best tools you have for Live improvisation on the Tribe is the Arp Ribbon and the scales. Also the Mod Depth/Speed knobs and effects obviously. By sequencing from Ableton I can also use Ableton's MIDI effects to...

Re: MIDI Utility for ON/OFF as two parameters?

Ok. I think I understand how the patch you posted works but I have a couple of questions. The boxes that I am supposed to input the CC#s and n into - which box is for which parameter? and is the n the value of the CC# sent? Also with the toggle switch - how do I learn ON/OFF as two separate function...

Re: Controlling Reason Parameters with APC40

I actually got a Korg Radias-R and rarely use Reason anymore now that I have a 4 timbre hardware synth, but not figuring this out was a big part of my move away from reason. Maybe I'll start using it more now. Thanks for posting this so long after I forgot about this post.

Re: MIDI Utility for ON/OFF as two parameters?

Before I dive into this I have a couple of questions. Is there a way to edit the external instrument to have this separate ON/OFF command so as to not have to have 9 instances of this utility running on the Instrument Rack in addition to the 9 different External Instruments in chain? To this end, an...

Re: dremel + screwdriver + screws + APC20 + APC40 =

I am about to buy an APC20 to add to my APC40 and was planning on doing the same thing as far as physically combining them. I have some questions about how they work together more than how to combine them though. Can you use the UP/DOWN and Side to Side controls to move both the 40 and the 20s clip ...

MIDI Utility for ON/OFF as two parameters?

I am trying to use the Part Mutes on my EMX-1 while its being sequenced via MIDI Clip in Ableton. I have ran into the problem that on the EMX-1 Part ON and Part OFF are two separate CC#s(6 for on and 38 for off for Drum Part 1). Meanwhile in Ableton the only way I have found to successfully Mute a s...

2 CC#s sending different values to same ableton parameter?

I sequence my EMX-1 drums and synths via Ableton and am trying to implement the Part Mute function to cut down on MIDI Clips in Ableton. I have an Instrument Rack set up with External Instruments for each of the Notes (A0-G#1) that correspond to the EMX-1's 9 drum parts in chain. I have found that I...

Re: Activate/Deactivate MIDI Note Mappable?

Originally I wasn't using any devices, just a MIDI Clip. I have since tried your Instrument Rack idea with each drum being assigned an External Instrument on its not in the chain. Using the Mutes in the Instrument Rack Chain does not mute the note being sequenced, but if I click the Device Activatio...

Re: Ableton not recognizing EMagic AMT8

I'm using 1.5 on a PC. Where I found to download the drivers the 2.5 link was broken, any ideas on where to find a PC driver?

2 CC#s activating different ranges on the same parameter?

I am trying to map device on/off to be controlled via a piece of external hardware. I have set an external instrument that I want to be able to turn on and off via the Part Mute Buttons on my EMX-1. The EMX-1 sends CC#6 on Part OFF and CC#38 for Part ON, while the Device On/Off function on the Ablet...

Ableton not recognizing EMagic AMT8

I just got an EMagic AMT8 USB MIDI Interface and have installed the drivers but it does not show up in Ableton's MIDI Preferences. When I play the hardware that I intended to sequence with Ableton the indicator lights on the AMT8 show activity. Any ideas on why Ableton isn't seeing it?

Re: Activate/Deactivate MIDI Note Mappable?

My track is sequencing the drums on my EMX-1, which are all on one channel and use NPRN. I have each drum assigned to a note A0-G#0 and would like to be able to mute the specific note that corresponds to each drum. As a work around I could make a group with each drum on a separate track but I like b...

Activate/Deactivate MIDI Note Mappable?

I am trying to map the Activate/Deactivate function of a MIDI Clip. Is this possible? You get to the function by right clicking on a note on the keyboard of a MIDI Clip. I imagine it will be 2 messages Note Activate and Note Deactivate. I am trying to enable me to use the Part Mute function on my Ko...

MIDI Clip Deactivate Note - Can I map This Function?

I sequence my KORG EMX-1 drums and synths through Ableton Live with an ACP40. I am trying to get the Part Mutes on the machine to work but to do that I have to find a way to mute a particular note in my MIDI clip that is sequencing a specific drum (ie: A0 - EMX Drum 1, B0 - Drum 2...). The deactivat...
